Getting Started...

Horse genetics can be complicated, but modern DNA testing allows you to gain insight
into the true colouring or pattern of your horse, and predicts which traits will be
passed on to a horse's offspring when bred.

To begin getting an understanding of which colour tests are relevant, please choose
one of the beneath to read about which genes are responsible for their appearance.

Solid horses - Blacks & Chestnuts.

Bays/Browns

White-pattern horses (ie; Tobiano, Appaloosa)

Pure-white horses and greys.

Dilute horses - Covers:
-Smokey Black
-Palomino
-Buckskin
-Perlino
-Cremello
-Smokey Cream

If your horse does not fall into the category above, please call or e-mail us as in most cases there are genetic tests which are relevant to determining your horse's colour genetics and potential foal appearance. We are always happy to discuss which tests are of use to you.
